Steve McQueen the director of 12 years a slave wanted the movie to be as accurate as possible and to not hold anything back from the audience. In a interview McQueen said "Everyones an adult here; they know how to deal with it."
This is what Mrs. Lawson wanted me to learn today:
-Only use quote when it adds power and style to my writing.
-Always make it clear, from context, that i understand the full meaning of the quote.
-Whether I quote of paraphrase, always be transparent about the source and how I'm using it.
-If I use another author's exact words or phrases, to any extent, I have to use quotation marks to give credit.
-If I use another author's presentation of facts or ideas, but put their ideas in my own words, I better have a good reason for doing that and MUST give credit.
-Hyperlinking is so easy, there is no excuse for not being transparent about my sources.
I UNDERSTAND THIS!
